The Alpha's Revival Chapter 33
Rex The second I open the door to the bed-and-breakfast, my senses are overloaded with Leah’s scent. It’s heaven and hell at the same time, because all I want to do is soak it in. It’s the most amazing smell in the world. My entire body longs to find her and bury my nose in her neck to get my fill. But Leah’s not here. And Ethan’s glum face is not the welcome home I had wanted. I’ve returned successfully from my mission to rid myself of Stacey, but my mate — Leah — is gone. “You’re brave,” I growl out as he meets me in the hallway. Ethan is like a brother to me. He practically became part of our family when his parents passed away. But right now, I am too furious to be near him. He promised me he would watch out for her. “Rex, I…” he says as I barge past. At the sound of his voice, my wolf sees red. He blames Ethan for our mate being in danger. I whirl around and grab the front of his shirt with both hands, shoving him hard against the wall beside us. “Where were you?” My voice is

Leah Back and forth, side to side. The gentle rocking motion would be calming if I didn’t feel like I was suffering from the worst hangover ever. I have a splitting headache and my stomach churns with every slight movement. Why is my bed rolling? Swallowing hard, I attempt to keep my lunch from reappearing as I crack open one eye and shut it immediately when bright daylight burns my retina. I was expecting the cool darkness of my bedroom. So I don’t just have the spins, I actually am moving. I take a second to breathe in through my nose and calm my senses. The sound of water gently lapping close by reaches my ears as the feel of something damp and rough presses against my cheek, a splinter digging into my soft skin. Beneath my fingertips, I detect the texture of unvarnished wood. Possibly worst of all is the burn of rope wound tightly around my wrists and ankles, as the acrid stench of sweat and fear fills my nose. This is bad. Pulling my legs up in front of me, I attempt to roll
The Alpha's Revival Chapter 35
Rex It’s like watching my entire universe collapse as Toby’s foot connects with Leah and she tips backward over the old wooden railing. As soon as I got the best of Mike, my wolf sped toward Toby. Determined to draw his attention, and hopefully gunfire, allowing Nathan to reach Leah and get her to safety. But Toby seemed to know exactly what I was planning. He also knew that I wouldn’t care what happened to me once Leah was safe. The only thing guaranteed to distract me from coming for him was putting her in mortal danger. If Toby shot her, he knew he’d be dead where he stood in the very next breath. So he did something just plain evil, in a last-ditch attempt to save his own skin. I instantly change direction and leap over the side, where Leah disappeared, at a dead sprint; shifting back into a man in mid-air. I hear gunfire and something slams into my side, but it barely registers as I plunge into the cold water. In the back of my mind, I realise I’ve been shot, but I can’t allow

Leah Since being brought to a private room, I’ve drifted in and out of sleep, exhausted. Other than checking my vitals regularly and hooking me up to oxygen when we arrived, the doctors have left me alone. They want to monitor me overnight, but provided I have no complications from inhaling water, like developing pneumonia, but rest is really all I need. Rex hasn’t left my side. Which would reassure me if he wasn’t acting so strange. Normally, he is the strong, silent type in an annoyingly calm and confident way. I think back to when I first arrived in Grey Ridge and he’d just watch me, arms crossed and stony faced as I tried to get a reaction out of him. Now, he’s silent, but he’s not one bit calm. Try as he might to hide it. “If you need to go outside, to run or whatever, just go. It’s okay,” I say without opening my eyes, shifting in the bed to get comfortable. A stabbing pain cuts through my right side, and I regret it immediately. I hiss and the hand gripping mine tightens imme

Rex “I know what you’re thinking, and you can forget it,” I warn as the door swings shut behind Hayley and Leila as they leave. Leah pouts and looks up at me from under her thick lashes with a mischievous glint in her eye. Goddess, I long for her. I don’t know how I’ve made it this long without having her. Her spirit and fire are the perfect balance to my coolness. She softens me and warms my heart. I’m hers, and she’s mine. Moving to her side, I reach for a springy blonde curl and run my fingers along it, twisting it around and letting it fall. Her full lips part slightly as she watches me, that smart mouth of hers quiet for once. I skim the backs of my knuckles over her cheek and along her delicate jaw. My thumb grazes her lower lip lightly, and I trail it gently down over her chin and down the column of her neck. She swallows as I continue my path lower, as far as the hospital gown will allow me, almost to the swell of her breasts. When I run out of exposed skin, I open my hand
The Alpha's Revival Chapter 38
Leah A soft click has me opening my eyes in the dim room. The blinds are down but not fully closed, and the early morning sun is weak, only barely making its presence known in my quiet room. Rex is gone. I can sense it now without even needing to look. It takes a moment for my eyes to adjust to the gloom enough to make out who is that’s lurking beside the door silently. He shoves his hands deep into his pockets as he leans against the wall. Ethan. “Are you okay?” Ethan enquires quietly when he sees that I’m awake. I sit up and straighten the blankets over my lap, smoothing them out to make sure I’m properly covered. Rex wouldn’t have left me indecent, but I don’t remember nodding off, only what we were doing right before. Holy moly, that man is fire. “I will be,” I say honestly, seeing the strain on his face as he takes in my chaffed wrists and stiff movements. There is no point in lying to him. I can see the anguish in his face, the concern. He won’t appreciate me trying to fill h
The Alpha's Revival Chapter 39
Leah “You’ve moved in with who?!” Zoe shrieks, and I watch with great amusement as she buries her face in her hands and spins away from the screen to face the back wall of her office. Her chair tilts back and I’m greeted with a fantastic view of the top of her head as she looks up towards the ceiling, presumably to compose herself. She had a hard enough time with Hayley getting married to Cooper after a few months. This is going to tip her over the edge. When her chair twirls back around, she still has one hand planted over her face, and she mutters something to herself before peeking out at me between her fingers. When we were leaving the hospital a few days ago, me moving to the packhouse seemed like the obvious solution. Rex couldn’t cope with me sleeping under the same roof as strangers, and I just want to be wherever he is. He makes me feel safe, and that’s something I need to hold on to. When he needs to leave, there’s always someone here to keep me company. “I’ve moved in wi
The Alpha's Revival Chapter 40
Rex “No baby, nice try, but that’s nothing more than a cute little love bite I’ll enjoy showing off,” I whisper against her neck as I rub my chest against the warmth of her back. My cock presses into her lower back and she arches, seeking more contact. When I push her even harder against the wall, I can scent how her arousal increases even further. She loves my dominant side. Which is a good thing because I like to be in control. “You knew,” she spits out, her voice laced with annoyance. “Why did you let me do it, then?” “I knew, baby. You’re a human. It doesn’t work like that.” I nuzzle the back of her neck and rock my hips, allowing my length to slide back and forth, grazing against the curve of her ass. Pressing her hands flat against the wall above her head, I nip her neck, eliciting another full-body shudder from my mate before I give her a warning. “Don’t move.” My tone is dark and again she shivers, snapping to attention. Leah doesn’t move a muscle apart from her chest, movi
